Vin Diesel Turns His Back on Family in the Fate of the Furious Trailer
So far, we've gotten several glimpses of The Fate of the Furious , but none of them are quite like this. Not only does the latest installment in the Fast & Furious franchise look jam-packed with action, but it seems like Vin Diesel may be separating from the pack for this one. Oh yeah, and Charlize Theron is the brilliant evil mastermind he teams up with. As if that wasn't enough to get you excited, we also get a glimpse of Dwayne Johnson's "rock" hard biceps! Check out the full trailer above before the movie hits theaters on April 14.
Mary-Kate Olsen Talks About Husband Olivier Sarkozy For the First Time
Mary-Kate Olsen certainly has her plate full these days. Not only does she run a fashion empire alongside her twin sister, Ashley, but she's also a wife and stepmom. During a recent interview with The Edit, the notoriously private star briefly opened up about her marriage to Olivier Sarkozy for the first time. "[Working hard] comes quite naturally for us," she told the online magazine of her and her sister. "We don't need so much time to sit and think and ponder. But then I have a husband, two stepkids and a life; I have to go home and cook dinner. I run on the weekend. You find the thing that helps you relax and if you don't have it, you have to look for it. Or you get burned out and then you're not productive."
Mary-Kate, 30, first began dating the 47-year-old half-brother of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy in 2012, and news of their engagement broke in February 2014. Almost a year later, the couple tied the knot in a small ceremony in Manhattan on Nov. 27.

Well, just check out the evolution of Isaac's facial hair, and you'll be convinced that he can pull off any look.

This Mom's Warning After Her Boy's "Terrible Reaction" to a Temporary Tattoo on Vacation
This is a terrible reaction my son has had after getting a henna tatoo on holiday. It reacted after a week when he went swimming back home😔😠 http://pic.twitter.com/8q97XAb02F
- Natasha Hamilton (@NatashaOfficial) March 7, 2017
When Natasha Hamilton was on vacation with her four kids, the British singer let her youngest get a temporary henna tattoo. However, the 6-year-old's enthusiasm for the design on his leg quickly faded when he suffered from a "terrible reaction" days later.
Natasha shared an upsetting photo on Twitter showing Alfie's swollen leg to warn other parents. "It reacted after a week when he went swimming back home," she wrote. Although Alfie isn't in pain - just angry that it happened and worried about scarring - his case is an example of why parents should be cautious of temporary and henna tattoos on trips, especially outside of the country.
"Unfortunately, stalls such as the one where this child had a henna tattoo, are not subject to any sort of regulation, so you are going on blind faith," Dr. Helen Webberley, GP for Oxford Online Pharmacy, told the Huffington Post UK. "There are different types of henna, all of which may cause an allergic reaction but in the most extreme cases, such as this one, the chemicals contained within the product actually burn the skin."
Webberley advises that kids avoid henna tattoos altogether, but if you still opt to have your kid get a design, it's important to note the ink's color. "The general rule is that henna is orange-brown in color and if the paste being applied is black or referred to as 'neutral' then it is not the genuine article," she said. "People tend to associate henna tattoos with being a pain-free temporary alternative to the real thing but as you can see in this instance, the skin's reaction is anything but."
Tom Hiddleston Looks So Good on the Red Carpet, You'll Want to Pound Your Chest and Roar
Tom Hiddleston looked all sorts of handsome (and excited!) when he attended the premiere of his new film, Kong: Skull Island, in Hollywood on Wednesday night. Dressed in a dark suit and blue shirt, the actor flashed his adorable smile as he posed for photos on the red carpet, mingled with fans (some of whom dressed up as King Kong), and chatted with his costars.
Tom's smiley outing comes on the heels of two very different interviews in which he touched on his brief romance with Taylor Swift. While he opened up to GQ about the "amazing" singer and their "real" time together, he shut another reporter from The Telegraph down, saying he doesn't want to talk about Taylor anymore. With so much to look forward to this year and his career gaining even more speed, who can blame him for wanting to leave the past behind him?

8 Celebrity Couples Who Have Already Broken Up This Year
It hasn't been very long since the start of 2017, but the year has already been peppered with sad celebrity breakups. It's still early, so we haven't reached 2016 levels yet, but here's hoping we won't have to mourn the end of many more high-profile pairs. Scroll through to see the couples who have already called it quits this year.
This Hack Will Forever Change the Way You Cut and Juice a Lime
If you're struggling to get a decent amount of liquid out of a lime, turns out you might be cutting it all wrong. Here's an easy hack to get almost triple the amount of juice. Instead of cutting the lime in half, you can make cuts on all four sides of the lime, leaving the center untouched, and you'll be able to squeeze so much more juice out of the sides, according to an image posted by Reddit user regularoldballoon. I wanted to see if it really worked, and spoiler: it 100 percent does. I'm never going back to the old way. Here's how to perfectly cut a lime to get the maximum amount of juice every time, because limes are expensive.
Stand the lime up vertically on a cutting board. You might want to carefully cut off the bottom tip to make this easier (and safer!). In a similar way that you would slice around the core of an apple, use a sharp knife to cut all four sides (or cheeks) of the lime, coming close to the stem. You'll be able to squeeze out all the juice from the cheeks with little effort, and you can even get a few more drops from the core.
You can clearly see the difference! When I sliced a lime in half, I got less than a tablespoon of juice, and the other lime yielded more than double that amount. Your guac and margaritas are about to be better than ever.
35 Klaroline Moments From The Vampire Diaries That Will Make Your Heart Burst
There's only one thing I really want from The Vampire Diaries finale: a Caroline and Klaus reunion. Sure, I'm excited about Nina Dobrev's return, but I would take a Klaroline moment over an Elena appearance any day. Though both Klaus and Caroline have moved on since their tryst (heck, Caroline is married now), I refuse to let go of hope that they may meet once again. And now that Stefan is human, there's a chance that Klaus will be her "last love" after all. While we're keeping our fingers crossed for Joseph Morgan to reprise his role on TVD, let's revisit their passionate, devastating, and glorious romance.
Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer Helped Christopher Meloni Heal After His Mother's Death
In the middle of filming Amy Schumer and Goldie Hawn's upcoming mother-daughter comedy Snatched, Christopher Meloni found out his own mom had passed away. During an appearance on The Talk on Wednesday, the Law & Order: Special Victims Unit alum revealed that he wouldn't have been able to get through it without the love of his costars. "We have one more shot to do and we're going to jump into a boat and zip up the river and Goldie Hawn and I start talking," he recalled of the morning he heard the tragic news. "I said 'Well, to be honest my mother passed.' She grabs me and she hugs me tight. I needed that moment." Amy, of course, responded to the news with a little bit of humor. Watch the video above to see what the actress did that perfectly "diffused" the situation.

Kate Middleton's Favorite Coat Is Also an American Classic
It's official: blue is Kate Middleton's power color and she looks damn good in it. The duchess of Cambridge was dipped head to toe in the color when she joined Prince William and Prince Harry to unveil a new war memorial in London, England.
Wearing a blue-gray twill Michael Kors coat and matching brimmed hat, Kate looked even more radiant with sapphire jewels and a navy Stuart Weitzman clutch. She played with the accessories perhaps to change up her look. This was, after all, the third time Kate had worn her Michael Kors jacket to a public event.
She previously debuted the outerwear in 2014 and then again in 2016. We don't blame her for continually going back to this classic, American piece - it suits her silhouette and elegant style. Given that the coat isn't shoppable anymore, Kate should hold on to her own for as long as she can. Scroll on to see how Kate remixed the jacket throughout the years, it's a style hack she's mastered.
47 Totally Rad Trends That Rocked the '80s and '90s
Between listening to new wave and boy bands and staring at our posters of Rob Lowe, Leonardo DiCaprio, and JTT, we somehow managed to style ourselves up in acid-washed jeans, biker shorts, jellies, and other semihorrific pieces way back when. Even though we shudder to think of some of the things we wore, many of those styles have come back with a vengeance (chokers and slip dresses are everywhere, and we all remember where we were the day American Apparel started selling scrunchies). Since there's nothing we love more than a fashion flashback, we've rounded up 47 of the biggest and best trends to come out of the '80s and '90s. Look through now to relive your fashion past.
A Tribute to Damon's Dancing on The Vampire Diaries
Though things have been kind of a bummer for Damon on The Vampire Diaries lately, we still have nothing but love for the character. In particular: his smolders, his sassiness, and his dance moves. He's memorably shaken it many times, usually while he's drinking, and sometimes with his shirt open. In honor of the series finale on Friday, here is every solid-gold GIF of him dancing on The Vampire Diaries.
Tom Cruise Mingles With Prince Philip During a Buckingham Palace Reception
Tom Cruise may be a huge Hollywood star, but he still gets starstruck over the royal family. During a dinner for the 75th anniversary of the Outward Bound Trust, a charity that helps young people reach their fullest potentials, the actor met with Prince Philip at Buckingham Palace, and the pictures pretty much speak for themselves. Wearing a black suit and bow tie, Tom was practically beaming as he shook the Duke of Edinburgh's hand during the event. Let's just say, the Mission Impossible star isn't the only celebrity to get excited about meeting a royal.
Blake and Robyn Lively Have the Sweetest Sisterhood, and Nothing Can Top That
There are a lot of things we love about Blake Lively (her fashion sense, her adorable daughters, her romance with husband Ryan Reynolds), but one of our favorites is her silly and sweet bond with her older sister, Robyn. The two, who are also incredibly close with their sister Lori, have never been shy about flaunting their sisterhood. From Blake channeling Robyn's iconic character in Teen Witch to them giving each other shout-outs on Instagram, we can never get enough of the Lively gals. Most recently, they laughed up a storm when they stepped out in New York City together in February. In our opinion, nothing can "Top That" (Sorry, had to).
This Instagram Artist Places Fashion It Girls in the Magical World of Disney
There are more than enough fashion Instagram accounts out there in the world, but this one Instagram artist has found an amazing way to differentiate himself from the pack. If you don't know Instagram collage artist Portis Wasp yet, you will soon enough. The Scottish artist takes fashion images from editorials one step further by placing supermodels in the magical world of Disney.
If you have a look at the Scottish artist's Instagram feed, you'll notice some of the biggest names in the industry making an appearance. Think Rihanna in a statement-making Balenciaga puffer jacket with Cinderella's Grand Duke peering over the corner. Better yet, imagine Gigi Hadid in a patchwork denim jacket and bikini bottoms with Thumper (the adorable rabbit from Bambi) gazing up at her. He even has a huge celebrity following on his account that includes Lily Aldridge, Steven Klein, and Gigi herself. Enter the whimsical world for yourself, and check out his work ahead.
The Backstreet Boys Bring *NSYNC's Joey Fatone on Stage During Their Vegas Show
It's been an ongoing debate between boy-band fans since the '90s: Backstreet Boys or *NSYNC? Well, on Wednesday night, we got the best of both worlds. During the Backstreet Boys' Las Vegas residency, the group brought up former *NSYNC member Joey Fatone for a special rendition of "Shape of My Heart." Not only does he fit right in with the men as he picks AJ McLean up and carries him in his arms, but he even gives Nick Carter a big kiss on the lips. You know what they say: what happens in Vegas gets shared with hundreds of fans. With rumors of an *NSYNC reunion floating around, we certainly wouldn't be opposed to these two iconic boy bands teaming up and going on tour together.

Jennifer Aniston's Already Wearing the Shoe of the Summer
In the Summer of 2016, Jennifer Aniston kept her Burberry wedges on repeat. She bought them in two neutral colorways, a promising move to make when you know you've found a style that's comfortable and versatile.
The actress, who always maintains effortless street style, stepped out in West Hollywood, CA, in a pair of boyfriend jeans, a fitted military jacket, and Soludos leather sandals with an espadrille platform. While these shoes are a few inches lower than her Burberry pairs, they're certainly more suitable for running errands on a relaxing afternoon.
Scroll to take a look, then shop Jen's pair along with similar options, before she scoops up every colorway.
These Brutally Honest Parenting Comics Will Crack You Up
Brian Gordon - a cartoonist and dad of two - has been making fun of being a parent since he became one. In an attempt to keep himself sane and bond with other parents, he shamelessly started creating funny-because-it's-true parenting comics - and we can't stop laughing at them.
As soon as he brought his first child home from the hospital, Brian convinced himself that he was the worst parent ever, that is, until he started sharing his insecurities with other parents, who completely identified with his struggles. From there on, he decided to start documenting anything and everything about parenting - from being exhausted to being spit-up on for the hundredth time - through cartoons, and it's now his favorite thing to do.
"Being a parent can be incredibly frustrating, and I think sharing those frustrations and laughing with other parents is the best thing we can do to keep each other sane," Brian told us. And keeping us all sane, he is. His comics have been so successful in the parenting world that he was able to compile his comics into his first book, which should undoubtedly be centered among the pile of kid crap on every parent's coffee table.
Read through to see some of Brian's hilarious comics, preorder his book before its March 22 release, become a patron of his work to see behind-the-scenes strips, shop his designs at Society6 and Zazzle, and visit him regularly for new comics.
Ice Meets Fire in the First Official Poster For Game of Thrones Season 7
The season seven premiere of Game of Thrones is still months away, so in the meantime, HBO has graciously given fans their first taste of what's to come: an official poster. OK, OK, yes, it's just a poster (which was released during the SXSW Festival on Wednesday), but the fire vs. ice theme appears to be a clear allusion to the budding rivalry (or relationship?) between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen, both of whom will compete for their spot on the Iron Throne (along with Tyrion, maybe?). Then again, as you might remember from the season six finale, Dany and her dragons are on their way to Westeros, while the Night's King and his terrifying army of wights and White Walkers are getting closer to the Wall. Who knows what season seven holds for sure, but it seems like a dragon vs. White Walker showdown is imminent.
The Moment This Bride Turns Around, You'll Fall Deeply in Love With Her Dress
There are plenty of things to take into account when choosing a wedding dress: fit, silhouette, whether you'd like it to be simple or statement-making, etc. For her big day, model Sun Wei likely looked for something that would wow from all angles, so she turned to Galia Lahav, a fashion house known for dresses with long, poufy trains - aka something fit for a princess or even a Barbie. As she said "I do" to Satoru Mizuno at the Aoyama St. Grace Cathedral in Tokyo, Japan, Sun had her back to the crowd, thus creating a view that took our breath away. Scroll through to see her flawless look in full, since the front's pretty spectacular as well. Then, see which trends will be big for brides in Fall 2017.

Not only does the princess regularly attend family events alongside her younger sister, Eugenie; her grandmother Queen Elizabeth II; and Kate Middleton, but she also participates in charity work and is developing a career in business.

Kendall Jenner's Airport Pants Will Replace Your Favorite Pair of Sweats
When deciding on a travel outfit, comfort typically comes first, and Kendall Jenner's jet-setting look - a Vetements pullover paired with silky, striped track pants from Morgan Lane - fits right into that category. The model was spotted rocking the ensemble at LAX, keeping accessories to a minimum and finishing her look with a pair of white sneakers.
Kendall may be onto something with her on-the-go look, as Hailee Steinfeld - who was at LAX the very same day - wore a pair of Adidas track pants with a crop top for her own flight. The coincidence definitely left us wondering: are these bottoms the new, more stylish airport sweats? Scroll through for proof that this might be the case, then shop some track pants ahead to nail the look.

Kate Middleton's Style Evolution Will Blow You Away

Hearing Jennifer Garner Telling Kids to Go the F*ck to Sleep Will Be the Highlight of Your Day
When it comes to celebrity moms, no one epitomizes the role quite like Jennifer Garner. The mom-of-three (Violet, 10, Seraphina, 7, and Sam, 4) personifies the role of the modern mom both on screen and off. But sometimes, even celebrity moms really just want their kids to go to sleep. And they're just as likely to lose their patience as we are, begging their kids to just go to sleep already.
Which is probably why hearing the star of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day and the upcoming Miracles From Heaven read Adam Mansbach's expletive-filled children's book Go the F*ck to Sleep for Vanity Fair is a video made in heaven.
Lounging poolside, Garner, who's been extremely candid about her split from Ben Affleck recently, uses her trademark sugary-sweet voice to implore her children to go to bed with lines like, "I know you're not thirsty, that's bullsh*t, stop lying. Lie the f*ck down, my darling, and sleep."

The One Thing You Should Really Prepare For With Your Second Child
Recently, I had dinner with a friend who had just had her second baby a few months before, right around the time her business partner and close friend had given birth to her first. "Everywhere we go, people fawn all over her, asking how she's handling motherhood, how the baby is doing, praising her for getting back to work so quickly," she said. "I'm like 'Hey, over here? I have a newborn, too!' It's like no one cares."
The difference was so stark to my friend not only because she saw it so often at work events and meetings but also because she remembered being in her partner's shoes just a couple years before, when she had her first baby, who's now the 2-year-old toddler who makes handling her second baby so much harder than she expected. Shouldn't she get double the praise, well wishes, and empathy for having two children?!
Unfortunately, as pretty much every mom of more than one child knows, that's not how it works. When you have your first baby, everyone is interested. You get constant phone calls, texts, emails, requests for photos, offers of meals (and that's not even mentioning the presents, which will come from near and far). It's an overwhelming and surprising time, and you will realize then just how much people truly care that you had a baby.
And then you have your second, and it's pretty much crickets. Sure, your parents and best friends will check in on the day you deliver to make sure you survived and the baby is healthy, but don't expect a meal train, okay? Because it ain't happening.
In some ways, it makes sense. Having your first child is most certainly the biggest adjustment of any woman's life. Maybe you watched family members and friends go through it and thought, "That doesn't look so hard," but then you have your own and realize it actually is way harder than you ever could have imagined - and also way better - and it kind of blows your mind and changes your whole view of yourself and the world in general.
Everything is new, and you can't fathom that people have been doing this baby raising thing for hundreds of years without more of a fuss. But eventually you adjust, you forget about the sleep deprivation and how you were in a haze for months, and maybe you decide you're ready for round two.
By now, people expect that you have this parenting thing down. You've had at least a year (we hope) to get it together and embrace your new role and your new mindset as a mom, you already have all the baby gear, and you've figured out child care for your first that will probably transfer to your second. You're a pro. So why would you need the presents and the constant caring phone calls and the praise for doing such a good job?
But the thing is, you do need it, at least some of it. Some bows and pink would be nice if you had a girl after having a boy. A double stroller would help. However, what you really need is support because having two kids? It's no freaking joke.
You are still up all night with a newborn, whose preferences and personality you're still figuring out, and you're dealing with a toddler, who makes every task so much harder and ensures that you really can't sleep when the baby sleeps. And you deserve for someone to bring you a hot dinner and ask how you're coping. Just don't bank on it happening.
